I'm a little confused. On my '04, turning the vent selector to the "dash vents only" setting will allow airflow from outside air (fan position doesn't matter).

If you're having hot air come out of the vents, it sounds like the temp selector is not working properly. I also had a vehicle that had a pneumatic valve that allowed (or stopped) the flow of coolant to the heater core. That valve went bad and no matter what the temp selector was set to, it would allow coolant to the HC and I ended up with hot air out of the vents. I took a quick look through my service manual but couldn't find how my coolant flow is controlled; I'll look some more.
